A day after Los Angeles unveiled its Coliseum plan for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games, Patrick Ryan, head of Chicago’s bid to be the U.S. candidate for the 2016 Games, told the Union League Club that Chicago’s bid will outshine Los Angeles in terms of creating an urban legacy, having a single Olympic Village as opposed to clusters of dorms, and having Games that are concentrated geographically, making life easier for athletes. The Chicago Tribune reports that Ryan compared Chicago’s bid to Los Angeles’ proposal, calling Chicago’s Games compact, centred in the heart of the city, with rowing, for instance, in Monroe Harbor. |

At least two blogs are carrying images of test advertisement that price Apple's iPhone for as low as $299, leading to speculation the much-vaunted gadget may sell for significantly less than Steve Jobs announced last month. The ad priced the 4GB iPhone at $299 and the 8GB model at $399.

Nokia has added three phones to its fashion handset collection, dubbed "the L'Amour Collection". The Finnish handset manufacturer says it has released the phones due to a growing demand from "stylish consumers the world over". (Does that mean customers weren't stylish before?) Nokia's 7390 comes packaged with a 3-megapixel auto-focus camera and WCDMA high-speed connectivity, video calling, and a music player with one-button access. It ships in bronze and pink, and is expected to cost €450. |
